Ye Qingfu had stayed in Zhengzhou for five full years. When she returned to the capital, she was both happy and excited. First she quietly lifted the car curtain and looked out, and then she simply stuck her head out and looked out openly.
Listening to the vague movement outside, Ye Qinglan felt a little itchy in her heart. She couldn't help but move her position and followed Ye Qingfu's gaze to look outside.
Shops, restaurants, teahouses, pawn shops, grocery stores, snack shops, rouge shops... I didn't see any of them.
Wherever you look, you can only see spacious and clean roads paved with blue bricks. There are many vehicles passing by, but not many pedestrians. There are not many people making loud noises, and there is no shouting and shouting from the vendors. I imagined it.
There is no lively street scene at all.
Is this the capital?
Probably because Ye Qinglan's disappointment was too obvious, Ye Qingfu turned his head slightly and glanced at her mockingly: "Look at the disappointed expression on your face. Why, aren't you happy to be able to return to the capital?"
Ye Qinglan pretended to be an understatement and said with a smile: "Of course I'm happy. However, I haven't been back for a few years, and it seems like it's not as lively as before."
This was said very skillfully, not only clarifying the doubts in my heart, but also not revealing any traces.
As expected, Ye Qingfu didn't have the slightest suspicion, and even said impatiently: "This is Ronghefang, one of the four lanes and seven lanes. The people who live here are either rich or noble. It's not the dirty places where common people live, so where are they from?"
lively.”
Four lanes and seven lanes?
Ye Qinglan paused for a moment, then laughed along with Ye Qingfu's words as if nothing had happened: "I haven't been back in the past few years, and I forgot all about this."
Ye Qingfu snorted lightly and said nothing more.
Ye Qinglan secretly felt a cold sweat for herself.
You can't eat carelessly and don't speak carelessly. This statement is absolutely true. She almost showed her weakness just now, but fortunately she reacted quickly and came around in time. She needs to be more careful next time.
No one else noticed this episode. Only Ruixue quietly raised her head and glanced at Ye Qinglan, then quickly lowered her eyelids.
The carriage drove forward smoothly, turned a corner, and found a quiet and spacious alley.
There are no other households in this alley, and there are high walls on both sides. At the end of the alley is a wide gate. Two stone lions stand tall and majestic. There is a plaque with gold rim hanging on the door, and there are several words on it.
Bright big characters.
Changyuan Bofu!
Ye Qinglan recited it silently in her heart several times, and a strange feeling came to her heart. Is this an old house in the capital? So majestic and majestic...
The carriage stopped, and Ye Chengli and Xue got off the carriage first. Ye Yuanzhou and others also got off one after another.
Mr. Xue raised his head and glanced, and the smile on his face stopped immediately.
The side door of Uncle Chang Yuan's Mansion was opened, and standing at the side door to greet Mrs. Chang Yuan was Mother Wang, who also led several maids and servants to greet her with a smile.
Chang Yuanbo and his wife were already very old, so it was no big deal that they did not come to greet them. The two brothers and sister-in-law did not even show up.
Mrs. Xue's smile faded, and she complained in a low voice: "We came all the way back, and we didn't even open the front door."
Ye Chengli was also a little unhappy in his heart, but he said: "Stop complaining, just go through the side door, first go to the house to visit your father and mother."
Ms. Xue snorted lightly, her face really not looking good.
Mrs. Wang is an old lady, she just pretended not to see Mr.
The wife is back."
These words sounded quite pleasant to the ears. Mrs. Xue nodded gently and twitched the corners of her lips: "Thank you, Mother Wang."
Mother Wang didn't even dare to say anything, but she smiled attentively and led the way.
A group of people, headed by Ye Chengli, entered Changyuan Uncle's Mansion through the side door.
Ye Qinglan followed the crowd inside, not daring to look around all the way. She only used the corner of her eyes to quietly look at the surrounding scenery.
Exquisite pavilions and pavilions are hidden among the lush trees, and the small rockery is surrounded by pink willows and green flowers. There are exotic flowers and plants everywhere, many of which have never been heard of or seen. The occasional chirping of a bird or an oriole is refreshing.
Along the way, a well-dressed woman who looked like a maid passed by from time to time. She was not timid when meeting everyone, she just smiled and said a blessing before quietly retreating, appearing calm and unhurried. The heritage of a noble family was fully demonstrated.
Ye Qinglan was secretly amazed.
I used to think that the Ye Zhai in Zhengzhou was already sophisticated enough, but compared to the old houses in the capital, it was far behind.
"Third sister, can you bear the pain?" Ye Yuanzhou came over at some point and asked quietly in a low voice.
Ye Qinglan calmly distanced herself: "Thank you for your concern, brother, everything is fine with me."
For several days, Ye Yuanzhou had no chance to talk to her at close range. It was a rare opportunity like this. He would not let it go easily. He came over again and said, "When I see my grandfather and the others later, I have to kowtow and salute. You haven't recovered yet."
Weak, remember to be careful..."
His tone was full of concern.
If this was just a brother's concern for his sister, Ye Qinglan would definitely accept it. Unfortunately, just thinking about Ye Yuanzhou's fiery eyes that night almost gave rise to goosebumps all over her body.
Ye Qinglan nodded casually and deliberately slowed down.
Her refusal was so obvious that Ye Yuanzhou couldn't even pretend not to notice it, and his smile suddenly became stiff.
"Cousin," Xue Yushu was ignorant of all this and came over with a smile: "What are you and your cousin talking about here?" Although he was talking to Ye Yuanzhou, his eyes were fixed on Ye Qinglan.
.
Ye Yuanzhou was upset and angry, and he had no mood to chat with him. When he saw Xue Yushu's shining eyes, he felt indescribably depressed. He casually said a few perfunctory words and looked away.
Xue Yushu didn't care what Ye Yuanzhou said at all, so he took advantage of the opportunity to talk and naturally stayed by Ye Qinglan's side. He was a cousin at the same time, not to mention being intimate with her.
Ye Qinglan didn't want to pay attention to him at first, but after a second thought, she suddenly changed her mind. She raised her head and glanced at Xue Yushu, with a faint smile on her lips.
That smile was fresh and beautiful, like the spring breeze blowing slowly, stirring up a pool of spring water.
Xue Yushu's heart skipped a beat and he was almost stunned.
My cousin has always been a very beautiful girl, but her beauty is like a dusty pearl, which makes people feel pitiful. But at this moment, her eyes are shining like gems, her rosy lips are slightly raised, and the pear dimples are looming on her cheeks.
Her plain and pretty face seems to emit light, and it is incredibly beautiful in the sunshine.
Xue Yushu suddenly felt that his face was inexplicably hot, and he could even hear his own heartbeat.
Ye Yuanzhou's smile faded, a hint of gloom flashed across his handsome face, and he clenched his right hand into a fist in his sleeve. She had never smiled so brightly and happily at him. e="Beautiful Garden"]
